Since the dragon element is so useful across the game, I didn't hesitate to incorporate dragons in my battles when the dragon challenge arrived for this week's battle adventure. Due to the fact that I can immediately choose my cards and engage in warfare with my opponents in the two matches I choose to highlight on this blog, dragons are occasionally an overpowering and stronger element than others, making long-lasting confrontations on my matches rarely to happen nowadays.
Sharing my battle story fighting with Daria Dragonscale
Dragons ✈️
I used a level 3 summoner to represent the strength of this dragon summoner as I can only play on silver league at the monet and I don't want to lose too many rewards points by playing low level cards on gold or diamond so I might keep my position on silver league where I can earn the most rewards points.

Challeng Match #1
First Round (Explosive Weaponry)
Dragon Jumper was the first to attack the enemy’s tank. With my dragon summoner’s additional melee attack, Shieldbearer’s defense was down with the first attack then it was the enemy’s turn to attack Celestial Harpy, giving another damage to my adjacent monsters caused by the blast ability. Thankful enough that I used, double strike sneaks’ Silvershield Assassin and Dhampir Infiltrator. At the early stage of the round, the enemy lost its 1st tank and the 2nd tank has great damage already leaving her a 4 health proceeding to the first position. As she attacked my tank with thorn ability, she defeated my celestial harpy and thorn-inflicted damage. The last part of round 1 made me nervous giving me 3 cards left while the enemy has 5 on his deck.
End Game (Double Strike)
like how the first round started, Dragon jumper attacked the Chaos Knight and blasted through Stitch Leech and thanks to Dhampir Infiltrator’s double strike, phase 10 of round 2, 2 of the enemy’s monster at the back position was defeated and was repeated as Silvershield assassin’s turn to attack gaining the sweet victory of XYkorlz.
Challenge Match #2
Round One (Grum)
With the battle rules of reflect and reverse speed, I carefully chose my monsters in this battle. I decided to use melee attacks so I chose Daria Dragonscale. Her additional melee attack would strengthen my team’s offense. I purposely put Flamesmith with the thought that the enemy might use a high shield or by using Kelya Frendul thus this would make them vulnerable to my melee attacks. As with the reverse speed rule, I put Grum Flameblade, with his low speed and blood lust ability will make him stronger throughout the battle as he defeats each of the enemy’s monsters. Carnage Titan is the best support and 2nd position for his double strike penetrates and could easily damage the enemy. With only 2 mana, I chose Flame Monkey to rebuild the shield of my monsters. Gargoyle Lion will be just a lure for my enemy as I was thinking he would use sneak attacks, his flying ability would give a chance that the enemy’s attack will be missed, and my 2nd to the last tank, Djinn Chwala though he cannot attack in his position if my last tank will die, he will be attacked by sneaks and he would give passive attack brought by thorn ability.
Round 2 (Repair)
The repair was a terrific cool idea for defeating my opponent with the reversed speed Grum is the best indeed! counterspell is really annoying, bad timing for my opponent not to identify the rules set so it's hard for him to win over me.
3RD Round (Double Strike)
Grum and Carnage Titan was really cool combo i just can easily kill my opponent with this kind of combo, basically i am overpowering my opponent with Daria Dragonscale and with the Fire element i had.
Final Round (Game Over)
As the final phase of the battle, i dominate the entire match, helping me climb on the ranked match and win this challenge!

Did your strategy work?
What will you try differently next time?
Do you like the DARIA DRAGONSCALE? Why or why not?
1ST Question
The bonus of one melee attack is incredibly strong for my melee creatures on the field, opportunity, sneak attack, and double strike give me shivers because monsters that come into contact with this combination will be utterly destroyed. I used it twice on Daria Dragonscale. However, it still relies on the set of rules because occasionally people are really intelligent and can simply counter some of my combos. But overall, dragons are quite powerful!
2ND Question
Byzantine Kitty is a card that I'd like to use in the coming up soon challenge when dragons are available. This card can be unfair at times because it gives tankers healing abilities as well as two speed and a true strike. It's also very useful and difficult to counter. I always run into this card when the new season begins but as time went on, Kitty's price increased on rentals, making it unaffordable for people to rent on silver and bronze. Therefore, I can already think of something else and not to counter this kind of summoner on the battles.
3RD Question
The final question is, "Why?" Because, whether you like them or not, dragons are terrific! Even though their mana costs are high, they may still be a strong deck in ranked matches. I'm not sure if this will ever be adjusted because the community loves dragons so much and the dragons element is the only one that can be combined with other aspects.
Thank you so much, Rick, for your wonderful and educational stream as always. Since we don't know what the market will look like in the future, every opinion, suggestion, and recommendation is extremely important to us gamers, players, and investors. It's also entertaining to watch because you give your viewers a bonus for tuning in. Thank you very much once more; I truly appreciate it. I wish you luck in getting your Splinterlands TV Clip of the Week contest someday.
